Are you just assuming that because there have been 3.x releases, 
everything in the standard library works properly in 3.x?  Or do you 
know something about the email package specifically?

Last I checked, there were a number of outstanding issues with email in 
3.x.  And as Michael Foord pointed out, there are other standard library 
modules in the same state.
